The proposed activities consist of: the lifting of the existing house by approximately 2.3 feet for further flood protection, the installation of a new foundation and new northern access addition, addition of handicap access ramps and stairs, addition of fill soil to meet the higher house finish flood elevation, installation of stormwater management chambers, installation of a retaining wall, laying of pervious patio, and mitigation plantings. Existing native and landscape plantings bordering the property are to remain. Other than an inspection to assure continued compliance with regulations, no changes are proposed to the existing septic system which was installed in 2016. The 50 Powers Lane parcel totals 8,712 sf of land. The footprint of the existing dwelling is 1,211 square feet (sf) with a 572 sf deck structure, and 20 feet of accessory structure for a total of 1,803 sf of structural coverage. The proposed limit of work (LOW) totals approximately 5,000 square feet. The LOW excludes the driveway, leach field and existing landscaping and plants. The footprint of the proposed dwelling upgrades is 1,467 square feet (sf) with a 547 sf deck structure, 20 feet of accessory structure, and 247 sf access ramp for a total of 2,281 sf of structural coverage. The proposed project would increase the lot coverage from the current 31.9% to a total of 33.8% lot coverage. This increase is mitigated by the proposed addition of the stormwater management collection and infiltration system for the raised house’s roof as the existing house currently discharges directly to the land surface, which surface flows to the adjacent streets. Erosion and stormwater run-off control barriers (silt sock or wattle) will be installed at the inner property boundary surrounding the parcel and/or the limit of work as shown in the Plans. Anticipated list of preconstruction permits: MA DEP and Yarmouth Conservation Commission Notice of Intent and Building Permit. www.strongtree.engineering 2 1.0 GENERAL SITE DESCRIPTION The Site is located in Yarmouth at the intersection of Powers Lane to the south and Island Road to the west. The proposed project Site, located at 41.63446 N, 70.22995 W, includes the 50 Powers Lane parcel identified by the Yarmouth Assessor ’s Office as Parcel Map ID 15-14. The parcel is recorded in the Barnstable County Registry of Deeds under Deed Book/Page C148207, dated April 23, 1998 and is located within a Yarmouth Residential Zoning District (R25). Per the Property Record Card available on the Town website, the Site parcel is approximately 0.2 -acres (8,712 sf) and contains a single-family, 3-bedroom dwelling. Powers Lane and Island Road are paved, public roads providing access to the surrounding private, single-family residences. Residences surround the Site in all directions. The Site is not located on or near any Town Conservation Land. There are resource areas in every direction from the Site. The Lewis Pond Salt Marsh is located approximately 400 ft to the north/northeast. The Sea Gull barrier beach is located approximately 105 ft to the east. A coastal dune is located approximately 40 feet to the south. A National Heritage Priority Habitat of Rare Species area (PH 2156) is located approximately 105 ft to the east and 105 ft to the south of the Site, with the Sea Gull Beach located beyond. Sea Gull Beach faces south towards the Nantucket Sound. (see Attachment A - Figures). The Applicant is proposing to raise the existing residential dwelling above the flood elevation, along with other site improvements, including the elevated deck upgrade, a new foundation, handicap access ramps and stairs, a pervious walkway to the driveway, a retaining wall, and a small addition at the north side (outside of wetlands buffer zones). The entirety of the Site is located within Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage, subject to jurisdiction of the MassDEP under the MA Wetlands Protection Act (WPA) and the Yarmouth Conservation Commission under the Yarmouth Wetland Regulations (Chapter 143) of the Code of the Town of Yarmouth, Massachusetts. The existing parcel area is relatively flat. (see Attachment A - Figures). 1.1 Soil and Groundwater Based on available data and maps from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), the soils in the vicinity of the proposed house addition project limits are anticipated to be Hooksan-Dune land complex, with 15 to 35% slopes (613C), which are sands typically associated with dunes and formed from eolian deposits. According to available data for the existing residence, high groundwater in the vicinity of the project is estimated to be of approximate elevation 1.5’ +/- . The soil map is provided in Attachment A - Figures. 1.2 FEMA Designation According to the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (Panel No. 25001C0588J, effective 07/16/2014), 100% of the property is within an AE Flood Zone with a base flood elevation (BFE) www.strongtree.engineering 3 of 11.0 feet. Flood Zone AE is an area of high-risk for flood. It represents 1% annual chance of flooding, also known as the 100-year floodplain. Properties within this Zone face a significant risk of flooding due to proximity to coastal areas. The Limit of Moderate Wave Action line is located just south of the Site. (see attached, Figure 2- FEMA Flood Zone Map). 1.3 State-listed Rare Species Habitat, Estimated Rare Wildlife Habitat, and Vernal Pools According to the most recent version of the Massachusetts Natural Heritage Atlas (15thEdition, August 1, 2021), per the Massachusetts Endangered Species Act (MESA), there are no Estimated or Priority Habitats of Rare Species, as administered by the Massachusetts National Heritage and Endangered Species Program (NHESP). - (see Attachment A - Figures). According to the MassGIS data layer, there are no certified or potential vernal pools on or near the Site. 1.4 Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) According to Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) maps and regulations, no portions of the property or proposed work areas are within an Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) - (see Attachment A - Figures). There are no ACECs within 4 miles of the property parcel. 1.5 Wetlands and Other Resource Areas The Site was evaluated for the potential presence of wetland resource areas at or near the property, using available digital resources and based on observations made during Site survey and elevation assessments conducted on January 24, 2025. Resource areas were evaluated in accordance with Delineating Bordering Vegetated Wetlands (BVW) under the the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (WPA) (September 2022), the US Army Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual, Technical Report Y-87-1 (January 1987), the Regional Supplement to the US Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Northcentral and Northeast Region Version 2.0 (January 2012), applying the Massachusetts Coastal Wetlands Regulations (“Coastal Manual”, October 2020), as well as the Yarmouth Wetlands Protection Regulations. The Section below provides a detailed description of the wetland resource area identified within the project area. Site photographs are provided in the Photographic Log, included as Attachment B. Description of Wetland Resource Areas Wetland resource areas are depicted on the enclosed Site Plan (see Attachment C). Based on the delineation methodology and information gained through Site research, the following resource areas were identified: • Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage (LSCSF): As defined in 310 CMR 10.04, Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage (LSCSF) is the “land subject to any inundation caused by coastal storms up to and including that caused by the 100-year storm, surge of record or storm of record, www.strongtree.engineering 4 whichever is greater.” The Yarmouth (Chapter 143) Wetlands Bylaw Regulations provide the same definition for “Land Subject to Coastal Flowage”. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood map was consulted to evaluate the presence of jurisdictional Land Subject to Flooding within the study area on the Site. According to the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), 100% of the property falls within LSCSF. The property falls within FEMA Flood Zone AE with a Base Flood Elevation (BFE) of 11.0 feet and defined as “areas at high risk of flooding with a 1% chance of flooding each year, known as the 100-year floodplain.” • Coastal Dune (D): As defined in 310 CMR 10.28(2), a Coastal Bank is “any natural hill, mound or ridge of sediment landward of a coastal beach deposited by wind action or storm overwash. Coastal dune also means sediment deposited by artificial means and serving the purpose of storm damage prevention or flood control.” The Yarmouth (Chapter 143) Wetlands Bylaw Regulations provide the same definition for “Coastal Dune”. One Coastal Dune (D) resource area was identified approximately 35-40 feet to the south. The southern located dune is a primary dune, with frontage on the Nantucket Sound. The landward limit of Coastal Beach marks the transition point where the Coastal Dune begins. The dune is moderately to steeply sloped. The landward limit of Coastal Dune overlaps the town road and row of houses directly to the south of the Site. Coastal Dune is afforded a jurisdictional 100-foot Buffer Zone under the WPA and under Yarmouth (Chapter 143) Wetlands Bylaw Regulations. No other jurisdictional wetlands areas were observed at or within 100 feet of the Site. 2.0 PROPOSED PROJECT The Applicant proposes to raise and upgrade the existing Cape Cod style house. The proposed activities consist of: ● the lifting of the existing house by approximately 2.3 feet for additional flood protection ● the installation of new foundation for the house lift ● new northern access addition with crawl space ● installation of handicap access ramps and stairs at the east and west sides ● addition of fill soil to meet house grading ● installation of two stormwater management chambers ● installation of a retaining wall along the south side ● laying of pervious patio at the southwest side of the house ● mitigation plantings at southwest corner www.strongtree.engineering 5 Existing native and landscape plantings bordering the property are to remain. Existing plantings along the west side are native American Beachgrass (Ammophila brevilugata) plantings in sandy soils. No changes are proposed to the septic system, though a system inspection is proposed during the redevelopment work. Should the septic system fail Title 5 inspections, a septic improvement project will be proposed under future permitting. A staging area for equipment will be located in the driveway. The proposed project will involve the lifting of the existing house with the use of house-lifting equipment. All utilities will be disconnected from the house prior to initiation of work. All equipment to be used is fully inspected and maintained to reduce potential pollution and to optimize protective performance. After the house is lifted, the existing concrete foundation will be removed to allow the installation of the new foundation. A temporary container for the deconstructed materials will be placed in the driveway. The proposed house footprint location is in kind with the existing house footprint. Site retaining walls have been proposed at the south side of the yard, just north of the bordering landscape, to raise the grade within the parcel to suit the higher elevation of the house and to accommodate the installation of subsurface stormwater chambers. Roof runoff will be collected via enclosed drainage pipe and directed to the underground recharge chambers with a minimum of 2 foot separation to groundwater to reduce runoff to the surrounding properties and roadways as the current house discharges to the surface. A small to mid-sized excavator and skid steer will be used for follow-up work. Once the home has been lifted, the surrounding ground will be filled to the proposed grades indicated on the Site Plan (Attachment C) and the existing deck will be elevated. Additional handicap access ramps, stairs, a northern addition and pervious patio are also proposed for installation after the house raising has been completed. The Applicant intends to begin the proposed Site work as soon as all relevant permitting has been acquired, with a tentative start date of September 2025. The existing home, slated for lifting and the proposed additional site redevelopment features are presented on the attached Site Plan. An Architectural plan is also included in Attachment C. 2.1 General Erosion and Sedimentation Control The Applicant will implement best management practices (BMP) for erosion and sediment control to protect downgradient areas by implementing a sediment and erosion control program during and immediately following construction activities. Silt socks will be placed along the inside of the property boundary/limit of work. Details of the proposed project work limits and established erosion control features are presented on the enclosed Site Plan. 3.0 ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS Alternative construction locations and configurations were investigated. Ultimately, the preferred alternative was selected because it was the option that best met all the project goals www.strongtree.engineering 6 of the Applicant for elevating the home above the flood line, improving accessibility to the house and to the driveway, improving stormwater retention capacity, property line setbacks, clearing limits, and topography. Other layout alternatives that were considered but not advanced include (but may not be limited to) the following, and the primary reason for non-selection of each alternative is also described. ● Alternative 1: No action Discussion: This alternative did not meet any of the Applicant ’s project goals. Furthermore, the current elevation of the existing home is sensitive to regular flooding and elevating the home is considered an improvement to floodland protections by increasing available recharge area. ● Alternative 2: To slope the grade rather than installing a retaining wall Discussion: The proposed slight increase in elevation/soil fill grade is proposed to aid in the reduction of flooding at the property. A retaining wall is proposed in order to better contain the existing and proposed fill soils while slowing down the flow rate of surface water to the southern adjacent road and properties. The raise in grade will increase available storage space in the two proposed stormwater recharge chambers, allowing for approximately 2 feet of space above existing high groundwater elevations. Should the property elevations remain as is with no increase in elevation, on-site flooding reduction goals would not be met. Therefore, this alternative does not meet the significant project goal of flood reduction. ● Alternative 3: To move or expand the house Discussion: There is no reason to relocate the house from its present footprints. This is due to the tight land use and in order to fulfill setback requirements. Setback limits do not apply to the proposed handicap access expansions on the west side due to Yarmouth Zoning Bylaws which stipulate that such features are allowable. The preferred alternative is the lifting of the dwelling and improvement of accessibility features per the Site Plan, included as Attachment C. The following sections outline the proposed project’s compliance with the Yarmouth Environmental Protection Bylaw. www.strongtree.engineering 7 4.0 PROTECTION OF RESOURCE AREA INTERESTS Approximately 5,000 sf, or 100%, of the proposed construction project is in the LSCSF. The Applicant proposes a series of measures to protect the integrity of the resource areas both prior to and following construction. These include structural measures such as implementation of erosion, sedimentation, stormwater, and runoff water controls. These measures will be implemented throughout the duration of the project in order to protect downgradient and/or nearby resource areas. The homeowner proposes to raise the foundation of the house by approximately 2.3 ft elevation. Proposed soils will be added in a gently sloped manner from the newly added retaining wall and sloping upwards towards the base of the new foundation. The retaining wall will be approximately 1.75 feet high. Approximately 2,000 square feet of the 5,000 LOW area is proposed to be filled. With an average height change within the 1-1.75 foot range, we have conservatively estimated that a total approximate volume of 115 cy ± fill soils will be needed to fill the yard. Anticipated construction project temporary disturbances are located within the State and Town defined LSCSF area and overlapping the 50-100 foot Buffer Zone to the Coastal Dune. Table 1 details the temporary and permanent impacts by resource area and impact type.

YWPB 2.04 - Notices of Intent Per Town Regulation 2.04, an abutters-notification letter has been prepared for all abutters within 100 feet of the Site. This form will be sent out to abutters concurrently, on the same day, as the Town and State NOI filing. A copy of the Assessor ’s list of Abutters and a copy of the completed abutter-notification form are provided as Attachment D. YWPB 2.05 - Submittal Requirements Per Town Regulation 2.05, additional submittal requirements related to the Site Plan have been considered and included. Proposed systems will include the necessary standards of continued protective performance, as discussed throughout this filing. The Site Plan is signed and stamped by a registered, professional engineer for performance of hydrology design and studies (see Attachment C). YWPB 4.03 - Coastal Dunes Per Town Regulation 4.03(3), the proposed work is aimed to fulfill the Performance Standards for an activity within 100 feet of Coastal Dune that indicates that no adverse effects occur to the www.strongtree.engineering 9 Dune as a result of the proposed work. Mitigation plantings are proposed at the southwest of the property. Regulation 4.03 (3)(f)(a) allows for plantings compatible with the natural vegetative cover. Due to the Applicant ’s efforts to minimize disturbance to the Dune and Buffer area, STE requests a variance to the Town of Yarmouth Wetlands Regulation 4.03 (3). YWPB 4.10 - LSCSF Per Town Regulation 4.10(3)(a), the proposed work is expected to fulfill the General Performance Standards for an activity within LSCSF that involves the building upon, removing, filling or altering of land such that it shall not have an adverse effect on the interests protected by the bylaw. The proposed house location footprint will not change. All proposed work in the LSCSF resource area will be minimally disruptive. The proposed upgrades in land use aims to reduce localized flooding. The proposed work shall meet and improve upon the performance standards set out in 4.10(3)(a)i and viii, in that it will increase the ability of the land to absorb and contain flood waters and to buffer downgradient areas from flood damage. The proposed work shall restore the interest of flood control by increasing the vadose zone at the property, allowing for greater water retention while not compromising the dwelling structure. The proposed work shall meet the performance standards set out in 4.10(3)(a)ix, whereby the existing septic system will be inspected during proposed property development work and it shall remain if it continues to meet all Title 5 and Board of Health thresholds. The proposed work shall meet the performance standards set out in 4.10(3)(a)xi, whereby any proposed deck must be securely anchored to a footing or foundation. STE requests a variance to the Town of Yarmouth Wetlands Regulations which limit fill and disturbance to the wetland resource area outlined above. The proposed work is meant to improve the functions of the LSCSF by reducing impacts from flooding to the Site and surrounding areas. NOI Town Forms-Supplemental Per the Town of Yarmouth NOI filing requirements, the following signed forms are included in Appendix E: ● Town of Yarmouth-Site Access Authorization Form ● Town of Yarmouth-21 Day Waiver Form ● Town of Yarmouth-Filing Fee Form YWPB 6.02 - Mitigation and Restoration According to Town Regulation 6.02(1), the proposed work is not located within 35 feet of the Coastal Dune. www.strongtree.engineering 10 According to Town Regulation 6.02(2) “Where a 50-foot undisturbed buffer zone exists prior to the proposed work, and shall remain intact upon project completion, further buffer zone enhancement shall not be required.” Only a small portion of land within the 0-50 foot buffer zone is located within property boundaries. Therefore, the Applicant proposes returning the southwestern triangle of lawn area (located within 50 feet of the Dune) back to native land. The Applicant requests a waiver to Town Regulation 6.02(3) which states that “Where a 50-foot undisturbed buffer zone does not exist prior to the proposed work, any work proposed within the 100-foot buffer zone shall be subject to mitigation planting requirements intended to restore, in so far as is possible, both the dimensions of a 50-foot undisturbed buffer and its vegetation.” Because a majority of the 0-50 foot Buffer Zone is located off of property land, and because road and residential developments are located even closer/on the dune resource area, we feel that the interpretation of the Mitigation regulations may be such that the addition of mitigation in the southwestern lawn area and maintenance of existing native vegetation within the Buffer zone reflect the most reasonable and beneficial mitigation efforts available for the Site conditions. 4.2 Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Regulations NOI State Form-NOI Per the Massachusetts Wetlands filing instructions, the WPA Form 3 and Filing Fee Transmittal form are signed and included as Appendix F.
